According to the county, as of the end of October this year, local tax arrears amounted to 1.2 billion KRW and non-tax revenue arrears reached 1.5 billion KRW. The county plans to focus all administrative resources on collecting these arrears by operating an intensive arrears clearance period until the end of December.

During the meeting, particular emphasis was placed on categorizing delinquents into simple delinquents, livelihood-based delinquents, and large-scale or habitual delinquents, and crafting tailored response strategies. For simple delinquents, the county will send text messages encouraging voluntary payment, while for livelihood-based delinquents, it will implement flexible and adaptable collection activities such as encouraging installment payments.

In contrast, for large-scale and habitual delinquents, the county will actively enforce strong administrative sanctions, including the seizure of real estate and bonds, travel bans, restrictions on licensed businesses, and the impoundment of vehicle license plates.

Deputy County Governor Hyungbin Seo stated, "Although the collection environment is challenging due to the economic downturn, local taxes and non-tax revenues are key independent financial resources for regional development. I urge all departments to cooperate and take united, active, and strong measures to collect arrears."
